    @Othawne cool plane! It looks a lot like a whirlwind. Was this plane real? Or is it fictional?

    Yes! So much more beautiful than the Merlin! But, it can't beat the rolls Royce kestrel engined hawker biplanes of the 30s! You gotta love the marlet/Wildcat too! Oh and the vroom sound of the hawker hunter... @Othawne

    I saw two amazing sounding spitfires yesterday, but they weren't as impressive as the formation of hawker fighters and us navy fighters, now that was an earsplittingly beautiful noise!

    Neither have I! When I've tried I'm always afraid that if I upload it it will insult the beauty of the spit! @Othawne
